GitHub releases for Foundations #344

Open brian-rose opened 1 year ago

brian-rose commented 1 year ago

Following up on #239, I think we should start minting "releases" of the Foundations source on GitHub. We can use calendar versioning, e.g. v2022.11.23.

I think a sensible policy would be to mint a new release whenever there's a non-trivial change in content, e.g. a new chapter added, revisions to code in a notebook, etc. Or, a change in infrastructure that affects the viewable content (such as updated JupyterBook theme).

One motivation for this is mentioned in the discussion linked above -- it lets people set notifications for themselves about new releases. I think it also signals vitality of the project.

I suggest we issue the first "release" in advance of AGU once we've gotten through the updates discussed at the last EWG meeting.

This is related to our plans to use Zenodo to issue DOIs for Foundations and Cookbooks. We should proceed with Foundations as a test case for all Cookbooks.

I made a release just to test it, and gave Zenodo permissions to this repository but it isn't all in place yet - just starting the exploration process.

Remaining work: what means a new release?
